First of all, I went to a thrift shop and bought these books. The total was $3. I then painted them different colors. I then wrote on the side of each book with a different handwriting and color. I tied a bow around it. :)
I enjoy making things, anything from handmade wedding cards to DIY laundry soap. The things I blog about are inspired from Pinterest, Facebook, and other blogs. I do not take full credit for the things I make.

Quiet Book: Weaving Pie
I traced a bowl onto the red felt and cut it out. I then hand-drew a pie first on paper, and then traced it onto the brown felt and cut it out. The strips are about one inch thick. I hot glued everything because I cannot hand stitch for the life of me!
Laundry Room Sign
I painted a picture frame and five clothes pins black. I used the Cricut to cut out the letters "clean. single. looking for a mate." I then glued the letters to a piece of scrapbook paper and put it into the frame. Then I hot glued the clothes pins to the bottom of the frame. I use it to hang mismatched socks up.
Christmas Nativity
I made this with our Relief Society last Christmas, It came in a kit. I just painted it and sanded the edges. I hot glued the round balls onto the blocks and added some yarn. I enjoyed making this cute little craft. :)

Quiet Book: Shoe Laces
I used white and blue felt for the shoe, glued together with hot glue. Then I hole punched eight holes, four on each side. Then I hot glued eight grommets, or eyelets, into the hole. Then I weaved crafting cord through the holes. I believe an actual shoe lace would work better though. The cord was a little thick, making it hard to tie.
DIY Wedding Flower Wreath
I had tons of extra flowers from the cake, the centerpieces, boutonnieres and corsages.
I didn't know what to do with them, so I turned them into a wreath for my front door.
I took all of my extra flowers that I used for my wedding and I hot glued them onto a Styrofoam wreath. It was easy and cheap!
